The blood in the urine, if it was bright red, & associated fever,chills,abdominal distress is consistent with a hemorrhagic cystitis that will require a urine culture&,while it's cooking, being started on antibiotics which may or may not be changed depending upon culture results. Frothy urine is a sign of protein in the urine which can be due to diabetic glomerular disease. See a nephrologist
